Geometric stability of the cotangent bundle and the universal cover of a projective manifold

Frédéric Campana, Thomas Peternell (2011)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

We first prove a strengthening of Miyaoka’s generic semi-positivity theorem: the quotients of the tensor powers of the cotangent bundle of a non-uniruled complex projective manifold X have a pseudo-effective (instead of generically nef) determinant. A first consequence is that X is of general type if its cotangent bundle contains a subsheaf with ‘big’ determinant. Among other applications, we deduce that if the universal cover of X is not covered by compact positive-dimensional analytic subsets,...

Geometric structures on the complement of a projective arrangement

Wim Couwenberg, Gert Heckman, Eduard Looijenga (2005)

Publications Mathématiques de l'IHÉS

Consider a complex projective space with its Fubini-Study metric. We study certain one parameter deformations of this metric on the complement of an arrangement (= finite union of hyperplanes) whose Levi-Civita connection is of Dunkl type. Interesting examples are obtained from the arrangements defined by finite complex reflection groups. We determine a parameter interval for which the metric is locally of Fubini-Study type, flat, or complex-hyperbolic. We find a finite subset of this interval for...

Geometry of currents, intersection theory and dynamics of horizontal-like maps

Tien-Cuong Dinh, Nessim Sibony (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We introduce a geometry on the cone of positive closed currents of bidegree ( p , p ) and apply it to define the intersection of such currents. We also construct and study the Green currents and the equilibrium measure for horizontal-like mappings. The Green currents satisfy some extremality properties. The equilibrium measure is invariant, mixing and has maximal entropy. It is equal to the intersection of the Green currents associated to the horizontal-like map and to its inverse.

Geometry of some twistor spaces of algebraic dimension one

Nobuhiro Honda (2015)

Complex Manifolds

It is shown that there exists a twistor space on the n-fold connected sum of complex projective planes nCP2, whose algebraic dimension is one and whose general fiber of the algebraic reduction is birational to an elliptic ruled surface or a K3 surface. The former kind of twistor spaces are constructed over nCP2 for any n ≥ 5, while the latter kind of example is constructed over 5CP2. Both of these seem to be the first such example on nCP2. The algebraic reduction in these examples is induced by...
